Ingredients

1 pound hot or regular breakfast sausage
1-2 tablespoons olive oil as needed
4 cups diced potatoes about ½-inch in size
1 teaspoon kosher salt adjust to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper adjust to taste
½ teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
1 medium yellow onion chopped into ½-inch pieces about 1 cup
½ small head of green cabbage sliced thin about 6 cups
1 red pepper sliced into matchsticks, about 1 cup

Instructions

In a large, deep-sided skillet over medium high heat, cook and crumble the sausage. Transfer the cooked sausage to a bowl. Leave the grease in the skillet and add enough olive oil to make about 2 tablespoons worth.
Add the potatoes and toss to coat. Add 2 tablespoons of water and scrape up the browned bits on the pan. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic. Cover with a lid, reduce to medium heat, and cook for 5 minutes.
Stir the potatoes and cover again. Cook an additional 4-5 minutes, until the potatoes are fork tender. Transfer the potatoes to the bowl with the sausage.
Return the skillet to the stove over medium heat and add a splash of water. Scrape up any browned bits, dump out any liquid remaining, and then wipe the pan mostly clean with a paper towel.
Return the pan to the stove and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the onions and saute for 2-3 minutes, stirring a few times while they brown. Add the cabbage and stir to mix well.
Add 2 tablespoons of water to the pan with the cabbage and cover with a lid. Reduce the heat to medium and allow the cabbage to cook covered for about 4 minutes. Uncover and add the peppers, season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking for a couple of minutes, until the peppers begin to soften.
Add the sausage and potatoes back to the skillet. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as desired. Serve immediately or keep warm while cooking eggs sunny side up or over easy. Serve topped with the eggs, if desired.
